| Description | Anal fissure is one of the most common and painful proctologic diseases. Linear ulcer is situated in the anal canal and extending from the dentate line to the margin of the anus. They cause pain and bleeding. Diagnosis is made from the history and local inspection. Acute anal fissures should be treated conservatively - increased fiber and fluid intake, warm baths, local anesthetic ointment, altertnatively with nitrates and if all else fails by botulinum toxin. Treatment of chronic fissures will start conservatively but operative options are necessary in many cases. |
